I am 72. 6 years ago was the 1st time I went for an eye exam. The Dr. said my eyes were off enough to effect my depth perception. So I got my 1st pair of prescription glasses. The 1st time on the bike after that was like seeing in 3D again. Cornering was so much clearer it is hard to describe. It made an enormous difference riding.
I just went in for another exam. Believe it or not, my eyes got slightly better and a new prescription was in order. Haven't been able to test it riding yet (weather) but driving is very clear again.
The eye exam was covered by Medicare. I had to pay an extra $36 for the prescription. Then around $125-$150 to get it filled at Walmart-Costco. Well worth it for me.
This crept up on me.
